Wow your sen has really nice slate color to it frozeneclipse! Beautiful!
 
You guys think there will be fine with 14 bichirs (endy, lap, congi, ornat) in a 150gal and 10 bichirs (dels, senes, sb endy) in a 95.
Also asian aro and IT in the 150.
Thanks!
 
a 150g as in 18" wide? No, those fish get 24-36" easy. If they were upper jaw I'd say go for it.

For that many lower jaws you want at least a 180g, but definitely should go bigger, like 3'X6'

Havent had time to go through this whole thread but I dropped into a fish farm recently where they spawn a lot of polypterus. They had some short bodied platinum endlicheri which I think are fairly rare so I took a couple of photos. This one was about 6cm

Its actually 24" wide and 60" long. And I will do an upg. this, or next year.. thinking of 250gal or bigger.

What bout the 95 gal?
 
What are the dims on that 95 malcus?



I finally found a 'normal length' albino sen. Most around here are 'semi sb' where they don't have the look of true sb, but they are stocky and pudgy,, somewhere between short body and normal.

This little girl(?) was swimming around the tank, but she's shy with the other fish in the grow-out tank. This is the best I could get of her:

That pellet next to her head is a little less than half a centimeter :)
